At the top of the pastures, where the fir trees are spaced out and the bells ring in the clear air, the valley's farm inns perpetuate a centuries-old tradition: that of the living mountain.
We climb there along paths lined with foxgloves, sometimes still on foot, sometimes by car, but always with the impression of going back in time.
In spring, the cows leave the villages to join the high stubble fields during the transhumance.
Among them, the Vosges cow, recognizable by its white coat with black spots, peaceful and well adapted to slopes.
They graze on fine, fragrant grass which gives the milk, and then the cheese, all its richness.
It is these landscapes, these seasons, these farming practices that we taste in each dish.
A farm inn is a break in the heart of the mountains, an invitation to eat real food with the added bonus of decor.
What makes farm inns proud is not only their recipes, but the origin of what is on the plate.
Here, we cook what we produce: morning milk, cheese matured on site, charcuterie smoked on the farm, herbs picked in the surrounding meadows.
Le Munster cheese is one of its most powerful symbols. Made in the valley for over a thousand years, it finds an authentic and characterful expression in the high-altitude farms.
For those who wish to discover this know-how, the Cheese Route is the ideal route. It connects farms, cellars and landscapes, to understand where this frank taste comes from... and why it has so much soul.
